Book Reviews of Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner (Includes Author's Book of Shadows)Book Review: Solitary Practioner, a MUST on pagan/Wiccan bookshelf! Summary: 5 StarsCunningham's Guide to the solitary practicioner is an absolute must. With this book and "The Spiral Dance" by Starhawk any beginning Wicca or pagan can learn the essential basics of practicing non-christian traditional earth based religion.
This book clearly outlines the principles of practice, but leaves specific interpretation up to the reader. This is a must, as in pagan religions there is truly no "right way". The standing stones book of shadows is an excellent guide to creating your own solitary tradition. What is truly impressive about this book is that all of the information can easily be trnsformed into group or coven practice.
An excellent supplement text is "Incense,Oils, and Brews", also by Cunningham. It will help spur your creativity with wonderful recipes for all kinds of concoctions from alter oil to magical soaps and powders!
Whether you are an initiate/novice, or third level priestess, this book can offer you insite into the solitary practictioner's world. I can not praise this book highly enough. I have been practicing for many years, and no longer am I solitary. Yet, my dog eared copy of Solitary Practioner is always a welcome sight, comfort, and wealth of basic information.

Book Review: One of the three books on my recommended list for beginners. Summary: 5 StarsI've loved this book since before it was published. It gives new folks and solitaries all the information they need to get started and/or practice alone. If this were the only book Scott had written, he would have made a contribution we other writers would be hard pressed to match.
Book Review: BUY IT!!! Novice or Newbie just Get it! Summary: 5 StarsThis is the one out of two of the absolute BEST books out there on Wicca! Solitaries its a must! Coveners can even gain from it! It has so much to offer, and keep giving more! Just when you think your finished, you find the follow-up book Living Wicca! Its Great!
Book Review: BUY THIS BOOK Summary: 5 StarsThis book is the best for all wiccans to have! Even if you think you know all about wicca or if your just starting out this is the number 1 book to have! You always have more to lean to matter what.
Book Review: WOW!!!!! Summary: 5 StarsAmazing... I must say I was a bit skeptical about spending ten books on a paperback, little did I know these ten bucks would change my life!
Raise your hand if you were in boy scouts. (my hand is raised and it's hard to type). Remember that nifty little book they gave you (sold you really) that told you how to survive. Well, this is exactly like it for a Wiccan, truely awesome.
(If not for anything else to find out what one of Lep Zeppelin's symbols on ZOSO mean :-))
